In The Eyes of The Contempted Sailor

In The Eyes of The Contempted Sailor

The wind, careful and strong blows
against window as I gaze to wonderment
of the life beyond my own identity

Cherish, I struck to my heart
on that long road from home to
the daring of doors, open and behold

Stars flickering in nights of long
ponder, I waste away these hours
where I am of self no longer

When dark approaches to the rise
of new, I am back in the same old blue,
running away from me and myself too

Beyond my own identity, an escape
to the bravety of dominus I lack
towards self-pity, I as many, contract

Burning of the night, like the virgin,
a promise to be made, no wonder of where
I have come from, a leading of paranoia, laid

The summer sweats tears of glad
Sunday morning was to be had
Beyond my own identity, forewarn glisten
in the eyes of the contempted sailor

I have become one with my own of views
Plenty of sights to see and do
in the eyes of the contempted sailor
much of I, he does choose
